galico scored against austria in 1997 is not screener was one of the goals that took scotland to front 98th. but why as a nation that used to expect to be a major tournament not been on the big stage for 23 long years? from the seventy's, the ninety's, scotland qualified for 67 worlds cups. me from candles classic against the netherlands in 1978. the scots watched their heroes score unbelievable goals against brazil st. you an unusual ways to snatch failure from the jaws of respectability against

brazil. again at the opening game of the world in france it was roger against rinaldo. scotland renewed this fierce and newly one sided rivalry after john colin's equalize to make it $11.00. the holders couldn't find a winner, so naturally gave them a helping hand with drake. barley school against norway on the 6th, in 1998. was the last my scotland men in a major tournament. since then, generation has gone by. thomas guzman, living in berlin, old enough to remember at least come with all my country to the city are over you in scotland. qualified last qualified for the major tournament. i was

i don't know if i can remember half convince myself i can remember that. but i can remember john colin's school independently against brazil. i think the 1st ones i can came to remember is the playoff. then for the next years. so i was scolding with scolding for a wembley pack and offer result and then it will not be enough. should and then what was, what was to come. failure to qualify for year 2000 and the 2002 world cup coast manager, trig greg his job and so begun. scotland hears of wandering in the football desert . me scotland decided to shake things up by bringing in their 1st ever foreign coach, german world cup winner, bertie full time there was like guidance lecture was that there was a law, it was more like maybe an experimental period for the national senior folks

experimentation. look to paid off when mcfadden scored the only goal of the game against the dutch in the 1st leg of the year. 2004 play off, but his fix know the feet and amsterdam meant the monday cold. i'm sorry, i didn't get a sniff of a major championship. i think that is when the court for then scott, really not that sex. no game because it was 6. now after that one could have been 10 enough that i really like just this will slow the claim. after votes departure, rotating cost of hardy souls was charged with taking scotland back to the victor. walter smith like the cliff george barley creek, levine, got struck and, and then mcneish again. all right. and failed. but was that done to them or a lack of quality players? great social changes with taking place in school for boys who are not playing football as much as they used to continuously. naturally,

usually the introduction of foreign talents into scott from which was initiated by sin and was taken on by the other clubs. walter smith said the boys going into the academies with good x, celtic and scotland player jamie smith disagrees. i think it was a lot of good players. things got on the can always produce clothes. i think the problem was almost systematic on celsion rangers, right? we were always try compete worse, primarily clubs which a country like they were spending a lot of money sign in bank play. i was given them back salaries and quite honestly the the good stake site and your players maybe got johns in 2019 come on manager. steve clark became the latest man charged with bringing back that long for success . the laid back air. sherman had a rocky start, but he galvanized an authority asleep,

brittle group of players to take them to glory in belgrade to i really rates the cost as a manager. i think what the commander was like on believable that they were all johnson and they were getting close to her watch and confessed. and then he takes over and ends up taking this commandment, team with naughty stars at all and gets them into europe. steve clark is basically from all i can see about a defense of most structured manager. he was the same with c'mon, scott, and i think a better essentially the end up being not the final answer. but he's been able to organize them as humiliating for neil defeat. in russia, in late 2019 press, the turning point for clark, he asked his players to carry their hearts with them and the 1000000 much unbeaten run. so they qualify for euro 2020. what's been the difference this led us to

qualify? some really good. it is a crop of talent not seed in scotland for a generation. there's the robert center champions, league winner with liverpool, manchester, united, pover, house, scott mc, terminate arsenals, marauding less bacteria and tyranny and aston villa. go scoring midfielder john again. and if you've got clear as you can bring in the claim for liverpool and asking villa manchester to play with germany. so you know, you have the qualities simple. i said, i think it's just that we do actually have the best group of players that were hudson's name. it probably. i mean, if you look to the managers we've had since we last qualified like would people james beck and watch off gordon stock? and as a manager, probably not celtic, christy showed that the players cared about giving the country something to

celebrate. amid the corona writers pandemic audible year review hope and from the socially distance partying begun wherever scots were in the world in glass. go to berlin, where i spent the past 9 years here. the chill of the cold war is never far away. the mid to come, you statues, there's plenty of scottish to be found even if it's not always flattering. scotlands reputation for parsimony is reflected in the names of its desk off the races. and it's in the street signs in the cities english quarter. white glasgow street in english quarter and it's

also to be in the city scottish exiles during the ton. demik has been painting for the place they call caledonia with the sink. i don't know me. 100 park law school to scotlands 3 group games are to be played at the national stadium. that means the talk to armies invasion of europe will have to wait at least a little while he always thought would make that open. when they summer and france or nate or spain, this is going to be quite, we have to separate the fact that over play in a major national famous game. but we're still in classical, awaiting scotland at the top of the check for public featuring labor crews and striker, patrick chick,

croatia with reopen ridge play maker luca lodge, which is also a trip down the road to wembley to meet hurricane england scotland, the england. it's the world's oldest international fixture. it's a little the fact that we told the english to play the game. it might be hard to believe for people who have actually watch scotland. but we invented classic football but can scold and teach england another lesson in the euros. after all, you haven't beaten the so called old enemy since don't hutchison scored at wembley and 1999. england can be very good, but it can be done as well with this good spirit and being the underdogs were you into that game might be a benefit to us as we go the euros who's against check the public was against croatia, but be england's and get not the 1st thing i would probably take as quite successful

tournament. you know, it's the anglo gym. we can beat them to drink and we can beat them intimately. scotland have never gone beyond the grid stage. it's a major tournament. defeats a costa rica in 1990 is just one entry in a catalog and disaster who number 123 licenses that can this increasingly confident? young squad. but the trend by reaching the last 16 so many thought placed in ideally, so for us to completely blow up to be one to be one of the sub place teams. is not going to look, i think we should be, we should be good enough. i think we've got the squad to surprise some people what we've done. we've got the potential for that with 2 of those group games to be played at honda park, scotland will be backed by home funds aching for

a chance to see life football after the panoramic weather scotland do a scotland or do the unthinkable and qualify for the last 16, it sure to be some atmosphere. whatever they do, these young players have shown that scotland can play the game and written their own chapter in the countries in shooting football romance with the last 2 years now. and this should be stream it with me in the me. oh,
